A Private War

A terrific, Golden Globe nominated Rosamund Pike stars in Matthew Heineman’s pulse-pounding narrative feature as journalist Marie Colvin, one of the most extraordinary war correspondents of our time. Sophisticated and psychologically perceptive, A Private War explores Colvin’s fearless, rebellious spirit and how the cumulative traumas she’s witnessed have taken a heavy personal toll –before she nevertheless finds herself, along with war photographer Paul Conroy (Jamie Dornan), embarking on the most dangerous assignment of her life in the besieged Syrian city of Homs.
